bloodred
Like ripe cherries
Bloodred describes the deep, dark red color of blood—a vivid, saturated hue suggesting intensity or violence: bloodred lips, a bloodred sunset, bloodred stains on the carpet.
The compound emphasizes the richness and darkness of the color more than plain red would.
Also spelled blood-red or blood red.
